I love the fabric you used in the blue one, I make totes, and I use the Fons and Porter pattern. I make them big for totes, but I want to start making pocketbooks, but I just haven't started one yet. The totes I make have six pockets on the in side. It takes me five hours to quilt the fabric, and five hours to make the tote. So It takes me 10 make one bag. I use a button closure, and it is washable, and I have a board in the bottom. You do a wonderful job, keep up the good work.
